Hello to all-

[toxicskylines]

Hello,

I'm from the Los Angeles, CA region.
I look forward to reading through threads and learning more. I tend to be more of a lurker than a poster but perhaps that may not be the case here. I can't make any promises either way.

I work on all sorts of things. My skillset evolves with every new project.

Reloading and gunsmithing are next on my list of things I'd like to familiarize myself with.
I'm a fabricator with plenty of room for growth.
I'll mess with just about anything, mostly for fun.

Thank you all.

Strange inquiry.. No.

Well I don't want to seem unwelcoming, bbbbuuuuttttttt I think its strange that someone who lives in Ca. joins a gun forum in NY days after a mass shooting goes nationwide. Maybe I'm paranoid idk

Welcome.

There are quite a few of us here who do not live in NY, but most of us did when we joined.

It is a good forum though, far better than the ones in most other states, which is why so many of us escapees stayed here rather than moving to the forum that matches our new state.

But, we do tend to get a steady stream of trolls and other far left miscreants, so some vigilance is to be expected.

So, basically, you're welcome here, but because of your lack of connection to NY you will probably be viewed with a little more suspicion than most until you have established a reputation.

But do not worry, this is no echo chamber, there are a wide variety of opinions on pretty much everything except gun rights. For RKBA we pretty much range from hard-core to absolute

Welcome! My kids live in California - one in LA and one in San Diego. WTF. NY & CA - can it get any worse?? Can't I have SOME relatives in Wyoming or something. Anyways, welcome again. It's a good bunch here. Just let us know if you cross the NY state lines - you'll need some debriefing...

Hey there, thank you for the warm welcome.

That's awesome. San Diego was always a fun place to visit when I was younger. Beautiful area.

I've lived in LA my whole life.
It's insane how much better I start to feel once I drive away from Los Angeles County.

If it's not too personal, How does your kid in LA feel about living here/there?

Out of state relatives would be a dream come true.
I was looking at some properties in Wyoming to move into. I went on a little trip to check it out in person during the dead of winter to see how bad the weather gets. It's not great, but still manageable. There's a big difference in preparation and readiness for the climate between visiting and actually living there.

My lady wasn't really into the sparse, "dead tree" look.

I thought it was a pretty cool place.
It's probably still on the table......for me... haha
ID, MT, WY, and WI look like great free states.
I can't leave CA soon enough, although, I have to worry about family for the time being.

As for New York,
I'm really interested in seeing the Statue of Liberty and Niagara Falls as well as trying some real New York pizza.
You guys probably have some excellent food spots out there.

Hello and welcome.
Just came back from LA area from visiting daughter. Going back out next month. Hate the politics there, like here, but truth be told love the weather. Will probably relocate there sometime in future as will be welcoming first grandchild in July.

Thank you!

Congratulations as well.

Certainly... the politics aren't so good.

The weather, vastness and convenience of certain things are about all people tend to praise this place for.
I wish you the best of luck in any relocation and good health for your grandchild.
